I would have said a Savage SS kit but it will cost you alot more then 420 to get running. you could also just get the rtr.

I'm thinkin about the gv v2000 preditor. It's a 1/10th scale monstertruck. Complete wid rc gear installed and painted shell AND DECALS PRE APPLIED! I have the gv v2000 cars and they will accept any engine. The preditor comes with a force .15 and plug. Install nicads/nimh, fill wid fuel, start it up and go!

The ultra LX pro is nice but like all things you get what you pay for.My buddy has one and it does scream but it's not very durable.He's bent the chassis twice,the shock towers(both) the radio tray the front steering knuckle and i'm sure i'm forgetting something.He's only had it for a month and it's his first r/c so I think most of the damage is due to driver error but thats alot of replacement parts.For the price of all the parts he's bought he could have bought a better buggy that might have been more durable.

The LX Pro is durable except it has 6mm (quite thin) axles which should be replaced. The MBX Pro for a few more dollars would be a better choice, I've an MBX R2 and haven't broken anything on it yet and I've raced it.

The OFNA Titan (Deluxe) is worth a look, otherwise the T-Maxx and Savage are good choices though in my opinion the T-maxx isn't all that durable.
